الوصف: | Abstract Objective Human T cell lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV‐1)‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a chronic, progressive, neurological disease. Chronic activation of CD8+ T cells, as evidenced by increased spontaneous lymphoproliferation and HTLV‐1‐specific cytotoxic T cells, has been demonstrated in HAM/TSP patients. Since IL‐2 and IL‐15 stimulate memory CD8+ T cell activity, these cytokines have been implicated in the immunopathogenesis of HAM/TSP. In this phase I trial, we evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, and ability of Hu‐Mikβ1, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed toward the IL‐2/IL‐15 receptor β‐chain (IL‐2/IL‐15Rβ: CD122), to saturate CD122 and regulate abnormal immune responses in patients with HAM/TSP by inhibition of IL‐15 action. Methods Hu‐Mikβ1 was administered intravenously at doses of 0.5 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg, or 1.5 mg/kg in a total of nine HAM/TSP patients. Five doses of Hu‐Mikβ1 were administered at 3‐week intervals. The clinical response was evaluated using standardized scales. Viral and immunologic outcome measures were examined including HTLV‐1 proviral load, T cell phenotypic analysis and spontaneous lymphoproliferation in HAM/TSP patients. Results There was no significant toxicity associated with Hu‐Mikβ1 administration in HAM/TSP patients. Saturation of CD122 by Hu‐Mikβ1 was achieved in five out of nine HAM/TSP patients. Administration of Hu‐Mikβ1 was associated with inhibition of aberrant CD8+ T cell function including spontaneous lymphoproliferation and degranulation and IFN‐γ expression, especially in HAM/TSP patients that achieved CD122 saturation. Interpretation The treatment with Hu‐Mikβ1 had a number of immunological effects on HAM/TSP patients although no clinical efficacy was observed. We also did not see any dose‐related toxicity. |
